Forecasts

Chief Little Rock (4/5), Feigning Madness (4/1), Arabic Legend (11/2), Bellum Justum (9/1), Defiance (10/1), Bur Dubai (100/1)

CHIEF LITTLE ROCK isn't entered for the Derby but he sets a high standard for this race having finished second in the Beresford Stakes at the Curragh and Autumn Stakes at Newmarket. Feigning Madness has the makings of a smart middle-distance performer so rates a big threat, while Arabic Legend is worth another chance for his new yard.
